The fun for me now is trying new things and TESTING the results or enjoying the benefits of that which has proven itself to work well in my market.Go, Have FUN, and tell us what you found out : > We at BP would love to know!

And it sounds like you've got the trends pegged (i.e. more casino workers, not as much focus on DOD, etc).

Here's a fun one for you, after your 4th mortgage the reserve requirements go up even more.

I'm hopeful you guys won't mind looking over a deal with me as I'm having to learn from the absolute ground up with hard money loans and all that fun.

You'll get "maxed out" fairly quick with the number of mortgages allowed (and like you said, lender's don't always like to give you credit for the rent you receive for the first few years) but you can probably pick up three or four before needing to get creative (and that's when it gets fun!)

It's a fun journey, not an easy one of course.

One of the things that is fun about the industry is trying to figure out how to keep organizing and getting your hands on more capital.

It will take the fun right out of things!

Flipping is like Black Jack It's fun, but over time the house always wins and the investor always loses.
